zayidhs: Two more points: Abeg I dey quote myself cos I've been waiting for S4 people to prove my above points wrong but they are all ignoring and challenging weaker arguments that are easier for them to attack. In all reasons, what beats the comforts of ergonomics and durability? I've seen an iPhone 4S that dropped on the road and okada ran over it, but it was still ok. He'll, I would bet with any S4 NLander to challenge my 5S to a series of durability tests. Air gesture, eye scroll and all that crap are things usually appreciated mostly by people that are not tech savvy( no insults intended). |

zayidhs:hahahahahahahahaha I'm literally lmao just reading that. so wanting a phone thats durable and small makes you tech savvy now. ok o I can't comment on the durability of iphone5 and later models cos i have not spent more than 2 minutes holding anyone of them. I feel stupid just holding one but I will say I have had a Note 2 and now 3 and as a very clumsy person, those phones have suffered in my hands. I am yet to experience any broken phones. Yes everything just goes all over the floor, that reduces the impact on the body cos the force is spread all over unlike iPhone that's just shut tight. but whatever... btw look 5s and s4 drop test below... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nACZdF_Gzcc 1 Like |

MsTeez: hahahahahahahahaha I'm literally lmao just reading that. so wanting a phone thats durable and small makes you tech savvy now. ok o Drop test performed & sponsored by who?? Pls don't get me doctored videos from YouTube that are not tested by an unbiased forum or in an impartial way. Get me something from a credible tech site or summat. How long have you been using your note 3? Cos you said "these" phones have suffered, so I want to know how many times your note3 fell?, on what?, which manner? & height of fall. Cos the way you talk am be like say your note3 don suffer for at least say, 1 year - if not, you've not earned the right to make the statement you just made. Please don't put words in my mouth, my point is people that know little about technology are the ones targeted by mobile companies with meaningless apps that will make them feel super about their devices, I never said anything about the phone making me tech savvy; but maybe it's cos I so much love technology, maybe cos my friends call me gadget man, maybe cos I've been in IT world for over 14 years(professionally), maybe cos I can do little things like disassembling any computer or phone in less than 15 minutes, maybe cos I can configure routers, perform advanced configurations & set up large scale networks. Maybe cos I'm fascinated by technology and keep a very keen eye on all developments be it mobile, production line, security, or others like space research, health breakthroughs etc or maybe as you said, it's cos my phone is durable and small, but who am I to argue? You seem to be the smart one. On a final note(forgive the pun-I couldn't resist) you said holding an iPhone made you feel stupid right? It does actually say a lot about you and gives me more reason to ignore you. Stay blessed. |

zayidhs: If you think about it though, plastics tend to be more durable when dropped even if the video may be a bit biased. |
Re: Things Samsung's Galaxy S4 Can Do That Iphone 5S Can't by Nobody: 9:04pm On Dec 29, 2013 |
Fulaman198: Emm, Oga sir, so you think plastics tend to be more durable than Aluminuim abi?? Well, I get your point but do you know that Apple made internal fittings of all components to fit just perfectly to a precision of micrometer?? Do you know that unless a force strong enough to crush the reinforced Aluminuim walls of an iPhone 5 or 5s is applied, there is no internal component that can shift from place even for a micrometer?? Do you know that Apple tempered the Aluminuim casing by variating it's resonance during fabrication such that any vibration due to force, impact or any other cause will change the energy form to sound and reverberate out reducing shock on the phone |
Re: Things Samsung's Galaxy S4 Can Do That Iphone 5S Can't by Fulaman198(m): 9:57pm On Dec 29, 2013 |
zayidhs: I know where you are coming from, and you have great points dear friend. Picture it this way, bouncing a plastic ball as opposed to bouncing an aluminium ball. Rubber polymers are plastics right? They may be cheaper to make but more durable for drop tests. |
Re: Things Samsung's Galaxy S4 Can Do That Iphone 5S Can't by Nobody: 10:50pm On Dec 29, 2013 |
Fulaman198: Well you are correct there, and I agree to a certain degree(little drops/falls) that the Samsung will exhibit a better if I may say, tendency not to experience shock. But, on a holistic view, the iPhone takes it since greater impacts are better catered for. I assure you my old iPhone 5 fell about 22 feet from a mast and all I had was a dent beside the earphone jack port & I witnessed(while driving) an iPhone 4s being ran over by an okada of which I parked, my friend got the phone and we went after the owner who didn't even know his phone fell(& the guy was acting like we were going to kidnap him). Stopped him and gave him the phone which was working perfectly albeit with some scratches on the edges. That was the moment I decided to buy an iPhone. BTW, then I was using Nokia E7(which i still am using) & Sony Xperia T26(which I kicked out). To conclude, just imagine a Samsung note3 or S4 plunging down 20 feet onto a concrete floor.... |
Re: Things Samsung's Galaxy S4 Can Do That Iphone 5S Can't by MsTeez: 11:12pm On Dec 29, 2013 |
zayidhs: ermmmm was your intention to be intimidating when you started listing your working experience cos I did not know you needed to be able to disassemble a computer before I could test its durability. pardon my ignorance. You're fixated on the note 3 cos you know it's not been out for that long. Only had it for about a month but I had my Note 2 for a year before I sold it and it was in pristine condition. My phone makes me feel super about it and I love it for that. At least, Samsung bothers to put some "meaningless" apps to compensate for the amount I spent on the phone. What did Apple give you? Maybe a bloated idea that you are superior because you don't buy into gimmicks and you would pay premium for a phone that's simple at best. btw, you can perform and record your own drop tests if a live recorded one is not enough for you. |

zayidhs:you say they aren't appreciated. Well an iPhone is a smartphone, but all those extra features on an s4 just makes it a smarter phone. |

davetwitzy: you say they aren't appreciated. Well an iPhone is a smartphone, but all those extra features on an s4 just makes it a smarter phone. Wow! Catchy, I think you should work for an ad outfit but wait, I've heard that one before. All those apps do not impress ME, for example my sister took my iPhone and downloaded an app that when you stand the iPhone on a smooth surface, it rotates itself 360 degrees while capturing and I was like WTH?? Cos I wasn't impressed at all but she was like in love with the app. But it's simple really; You prefer Samsung + Android cos that is what you use & you'll stand by it all day. I prefer iPhone + iOS cos that is what I Usually, when a deadlock takes place, there are no winners so, I agree that to you, Samsung S4 is better & to me, iPhone 5S is better. Case settled!!! |

deejay_harry1:davetwitzy: Comeon guys, it hasn't gotten to that. davetwitzy, you are right by your top search assertions but once in a while that phenomenon is broken which means deejay_harry1 might be the person to break into top 3. Also, I believe he feels you are saying he can't achieve what he puts himself to and that is why he is offended as your remark sounds personal - though I believe it isn't. With all that said, I believe you guys can be gentlemen and let this one slide. |
